Brother Hamza has some things to say. I found this by following your links 
http://www.hamzatzortzis.com/essays-articles/exploring-the-quran/does-the-quran-contain-scientific-miracles-a-new-approach/
Peace Bro
Thank you for the link, Stardusty, but it really doesn't refute a thing. The brother said that he is uncertain about the Scientific Miracles, and also said that a growing number of Scholars and Academics are embracing this School; the school of the Glorious Quran does have ample and STUNNING Scientific Miracles in It. So really, he has not refuted anything here. And the growing number of scholars and academics adopting this school should give you a clear indication that there is something serious and real in the Holy Quran.
Furthermore, brother Hamza did not AT ALL address any of the Numerical Miracles, nor did he address the Number 19 Miracle, which Allah Almighty Said it is one of the GREATEST MIRACLES IN THE HOLY QURAN. I already quoted that above.
Allah Almighty talked about the Scientific Miracles:Also, and again, Allah Almighty left it for us, the Muslims and people in general who live in the Advanced Ages such as ours today, to discover the Quran's STUNNING Numerical and Scientific Miracles today under our advanced computer technology where we can do split second searches, counts and analysis. Allah Almighty did Promise:
"We will soon show them Our signs in the Universe and INSIDE THEIR SELVES, until it will become quite clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things? (The Noble Quran, 41:53)""...that it is the truth..." refers to the Glorious Quran being proven to be the Truth through the Scientific Signs that Allah Almighty will reveal in the Universe and in our Physiology, Biology and Embryology, and in the Numerical Miracles that all will prove that the Quran is indeed from our Creator, the Almighty.

41:53 be considered a Divine Promise and Prophecy being fulfilled by Allah Almighty, Stardusty? Why must every STUNNING Miracle and Prophecy be rejected according to you? If the era of unveiling the Glorious Quran's Miracles, which we call today Scientific and Numerical Miracles,
has begun, then why must you resist it and reject it as the
infidels of old resisted and rejected the clear and evident and indisputable Truth and Signs and Miracles of Allah Almighty and his Prophets and Messengers, peace be upon all of them? And worse, they even killed His Prophets and Messengers, and burned His Books. And they called GOD Almighty's Miracles sorcery, magic, and lies.
I am telling you, Stardusty, Heaven and Hell are real! The Glorious Quran tells us this. And you are shipping yourself to the Doom of Hell with your stubbornness and blasphemies, by rejecting GOD Almighty, rejecting the Holy Quran, and rejecting Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.
Yes, Heaven and Hell are VERY REAL! Just like earth's pleasure, happiness, joy, pain, agony, bliss and fire are also real. Heaven and Hell are real. Why can't life be a little preview and/or demo for you and me by Allah Almighty about what to expect in the GRAND LIFE in the Day of Judgment? Why must you chose the Doom of Hell when you have the Bliss of Heaven? And this is no corrupt Bible or any other corrupt book claim. The Glorious Quran has proven Itself over and over and over again to be the Divine Truth of GOD Almighty. Allah Almighty called the Glorious Quran the Book that is
"Muhaymin" (
??,
"Has all Authority above all") above all books. See Noble Verse
5:48. So why not accept It? Why must you be on the side of the infidels?
